Mastering IAM Policies: Troubleshooting and Best Practices
In today's session, we delve deep into IAM (Identity and Access Management), discussing its basic components, major real-time challenges, and troubleshooting steps. We cover user permissions, groups, roles, and the importance of creating an optimal permission set. Key topics include how to use the IAM Policy Generator, understanding IAM policies and the components such as SID, Effect, Resources, and Principals. We explore troubleshooting IAM issues using CloudTrail and IAM Policy Simulator, as well as understand the role of Service Control Policies (SCPs) and Resource Policies. Additionally, we demonstrate a real-world scenario involving troubleshooting permissions between EC2 and S3 services.
